In this study, we will examine the core ethical/moral teachings and principles of the following religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. The relationship between these traditions and the issues of war and violence will be explored. Methods of ethical reasoning and critical thinking will be applied to the ethical dilemmas that arise across the narrative history of these traditions as students develop a mature understanding in the field of comparative religious ethics.
